7 Hearty Vegan Sandwiches That Don't Mess Around

I am decidedly pro-meat and cheese. Nothing gives me more joy than thin slices of prosciutto and creamy goat cheese. But sometimes when I'm feeling a little bogged down during the week, I like eating something that will give me energy and won't throw me into a midday food coma. Step in: vegan sandwiches.

These aren't just any vegan sandwiches though — they are heartier than your average veggie delight. These things mean business.

The key to a good vegan or vegetarian sandwich, of course, is always the spread: white bean spread, olive tapenade, or an interesting hummus.
